Yesterday, it was noticed that Treyarch and Activision had begun their marketing campaign for their next Call of Duty title. Posters such as this one, containing a potential announcement date, began appearing in various GameStop locations. It also suggested the importance of the word “Eclipse” which, thanks to the help of some YouTubers, led us to believe that the next CoD will be releasing on November the 13th, 2012, a day in which a total solar eclipse will take place and also a day which happens to be the second Tuesday of the month, a day that CoD titles typically release.

Thanks to a brand new poster that has appeared on the PSPKing forums from an “unnamed source,” it seems that November the 13th will, indeed, be the release date of Call of Duty: Black Ops 2, if it is to be believed. Check it out for yourself and let us know what you think in the comments below!

Update: A phrase in the description underneath the image in the forum post reads (translated): “results from the necessary editing of the original photo.” This suggests that the image could, indeed, be fake. However, we’ve yet to hear any further info about the “leaked” multiplayer details.

It’s unclear what is said underneath the date, 13.11.12, which reads in a European format. The Black Ops 2 logo looks typical and unvaried from the font and style of the original Black Ops other than the “2″ being orange.

Also leaked on the same forums is what appears to be an entire list of brand new multiplayer information. This ranges from new game modes, perks, equipment, weapons and attachments. You can compare it to some of the multiplayer information we gathered earlier. Check it out as listed on the forums below:

-Game Modes-

Escort ~ A game mode in which you escort a player across three flags to achieve victory. The enemy team killing the player will result in a win for their side.

Split Spawn ~ A game mode in which you spawn from a hellicopter, and climb down to get to the ground. The player starts with 3 lives. One player can control the chopper to let you climb down in different areas, as well as shoot from the chopper. If the chopper is destroyed, players can no longer spawn. Players compete for a central flag that takes 2x as long to capture than a regular domination flag. Either the death of all opposing players or the capturing of the flag will grant you a win. This game has 2 rounds.

Equalizer ~ A game mode in which players are switched to the enemy team upon death. Players will compete for a flag, which when owned, open up a power plant to allow the player to customize their class in game, get new weapons, and put on a juggernaut suit for their team only.When there are 2 players left on a team, they are granted with the power plant automatically, and pointstreaks up to a 5 point requirement can also be obtained. If either of the two players die, they will remain on their own team. The team with the most converts (kills) at the end will win. If tied, whoever is currently owning the power plant will win.

-Perks- (Only new and modified!) (Perk slot not yet defined!)

To clarify what elite is, it is a side-pro perk you can choose when leveling up the base perk. These elite perks ONLY work if paired with another BASE perk.

1. Spy – Appear as a friend on the map. (Disadvantage is, you’re always spotted even without a UAV, and when shooting, you turn red on the map)
b. Pro – Detect enemy spies. They will still always be spotted on the radar.
c. Elite – If Pilot is active, your airship will be marked as an ally.

2. Escape Artist – When going prone, you feign death (You cannot shoot during)
b. Pro – When approaching death, the enemies crosshairs will turn to white, and your name will dissapear.
c. Elite – if Diver is active – You realistically fall into your feign death instead of diving.

3. Audiophile – Players with silenced weapons will show on your radar if they are shooting at you or close around you.
b. Pro – Footsteps are louder
c. Elite – If bladesman is active – kniving will show up on the radar

4. Defuser – Throw all equipment but cookable grenades up to 2x farther – a hollow circle will show up around your crosshairs, and the circle will fill in 3 seconds. When the circle is full, it will throw 2x farther, when it is empty, it will throw 1x as far.
b. Pro – Be able to take semtex off of players and throw them elsewhere, and be able to pick up any enemy equipment and use it as your own.
c. Elite – if quickdraw is active – the circle will fill in 1.5 seconds.

6. Diver – You can dive into cover (A.K.A. Dolphin Dive) – and while diving you can still shoot, however when you land it takes awhile to regain focus.
b. Pro – You crawl 2x faster
c. Elite – With Extreme conditioning active – You can sprint while crawling to crawl faster (3x) instead of getting up.

9. Bladesman – You have 2 knives in each hand instead of just one in one hand. (This essentially makes knives kill twice as fast.)
b. Pro – You have a chance of dodging the incoming players knife.
c. Elite – If assasin is active – kniving will be completely silent and not show on the killfeed, unless countered by audiophile elite.

10. Conciousness – While standing, you are just as accurate as when you are prone
b. Pro – Your bullets cause more flinching.
c. Elite – If marksman is active – shooting your enemy will mark him on the mini map.

11. Focus – Be able to shoot while sprinting, even at the deduction of accuracy.
b. Pro – Be able to shoot while jumping, even at the deduction of accuracy.
c. Elite – If stalker is active – when jumping, equipment does less damage to you.

1. Default Knife – Takes 2 swipes to kill, you need to put it away, and take it back out like usual.
2. Tactical knife – Takes 4 swipes to kill, as long as you are pushing the melee button however, it will keep knifing
3. Tactical hammer – Takes longer to get out, takes 4 swipes to kill, you need to put it away and take it back out like usual, but against riot shields and machines it takes only 1 swipe to destroy.
4. Throwing knifes – Start with 4, fast to get out, fairly accurate, but takes 2 to kill and is ranged
5. Tomahawks – Start with 2, slow to get out, fairly innacurate, and takes 1 to kill and is ranged
6. Ballistic knife – [Disallows use of equipment] – A tactical knife in one hand, while a ballistic knife is in the other. You start with 2 ballistic knives, and they kill in 1 shot. These knives take a moderate time to get out. (With Bladesman on, you start with 3 ballistic knives and one ballistic knife in each hand.)

-Guns- (More than EVER!!) (These are the ones announced or finished so far)

9. Bladesman – You have 2 knives in each hand instead of just one in one hand. (This essentially makes knives kill twice as fast.)
b. Pro – You have a chance of dodging the incoming players knife.
c. Elite – If assasin is active – kniving will be completely silent and
not show on the killfeed, unless countered by audiophile elite.

10. Conciousness – While standing, you are just as accurate as when you are prone
b. Pro – Your bullets cause more flinching.
c. Elite – If marksman is active – shooting your enemy will mark him on the mini map.

Soooo many people would complain if those are actual perks, I’m pretty sure this is made up information.

PizzaMonkey

knifing on kill cam. It’s a little bit unrealistic. Lol. But i won’t say another thing until the game is finisched and released.

http://www.facebook.com/TheNeoReaper Chad Eugene Rash

if this info is accurate i will NOT be buying Black Ops 2!!!

Eberton Konieczny Sobreira

Too early to say that my friend. Wait for more info about the game before this affirmation.

Did you even read his comment? All he said was that if this was what the game will be he’s not buying it.

WasabeJuice

Did you even understand what Eberton said? All the information are ‘leaks’ and there is no confirmation yet that this game is about what was said on top.

Zombies=SSDD!!! thats a mode for people who cant play multiplayer fucktard

dakan45

black ops was a very well made game with alot of love put into it and easter eggs, in singleplayer. So as far as i got to say, it worths a rent for singleplayer.

Guttegrunt

2kd multiplayer (mostly play gamebattles)and i like zombies more than multiplayer. if you want a 1v1 add me on psn Guttergrunt. used to have xbox 360 but realised its too easy to pwn the little kids.

Why_oh_why

PS3 is much easier than Xbox imo. Also Gamebattles means nothing and 1v1s mean nothing because you can easily predict someone’s routes.

David Y

hahhahaha so you say that on xbox are more kids then ps3?

http://www.facebook.com/TheNeoReaper Chad Eugene Rash

i agree 360 way easier to pwn.

um im pretty good at multiplayer but i play zombies anyway this is fake because there is an m16 as a gun in the multiplay

lol i know there is just too much crap (the supposed info) on this list bladesmen wtf? lol let me guess every players get to use 5 perks now?

Jcraff3

No dude..its letting u coordinate skills to build an assassin essentially..only instead of being mw3 and making him over the top well rounded, its like a FBI agent specialized in something….evey single person well have strengths and weaknesses and they will both interact w each other against everyone else, instead of being over dominate…gunna b so nice

If you don’t want anything to be new, just stick with the old games forever. Boring guy.

http://www.facebook.com/DylanChappy Chappy Dylan Chapman

As of u wouldnt buy it, it sounds fuckin awsome !

AbsoluteZR0

Lol u must be the dude that prefers to camp then! I think those details sound nice! Diving and Shooting as a Killcam! Sounds insane!

J_mckay93

The end of call of duty is here after reading this I know they completed butchered this game those game modes sound horrible to have the Redeye and the stinger thats just reduntant its the same FKIng weapon, I cant equip shotguns unless I use an Assault rifle? what? I cant have pistols unless Im using a sniper WTF??

Its an underslung shotgun/grenade launcher like every other game?

Yeah like its an underslung pistol or underslung shotgun but only certain guns can have them and does anyone else think that a sniper with a bayonet is an oxymoron

That isn’t at all what the article states – if you read it carefully, it clearly implies that having pistols on the sniper class etc is a specialised attachment, nowhere does it state that pistols, shotguns may only be used in these exact circumstances.

Jesus, the level of blind ignorance on these forums is magnificent sometimes.

J_mckay93

dude it means its ATTACHED to the gun soo you cant have it attached unless your using that READ you dumb fuck

J_mckay93

ScoobyDoodles

That is in no way what the article states! What it says is that if you have a pistol on a sniper class, it counts as an attachment, thereby giving you space for a DIFFERENT secondary. Same with the shotguns w/ assault rifles. And snipers with bayonets is not an oxymoron, if an asshole gets too close, it’s probably to stab him. I’d assume it has a one hit, quicker melee than a regular knife does.

J_mckay93

nooo its attached to the gun lmfao

inja

its attached to the gun if you wants fast switching, you can have a pistol normally with any primary but you dont get fast switching if its not attached you dumb fuck. learn to read properly.

Just cuz mw2 had beatiful hit detection and oma+noobtubes, its worse than mw3? I dont think so, mw2> mw3 any day

you do realize black ops 2 isnt being made by infinity ward, new OR old right?

Black ops and mw3 are to different playing exprences

Great article!! Perk spy and escape Artist… We have to wait and see And we hope black ops 2 will have ALLOT more good smgs

lewis

obviously not real, as all of the perks they claim to need to unlock elite editions of perks are ones which are in modern warfare 3, and it never happens that all of the last games perks are replicated. infact the name is NEVER kept the same from one game to then next.

This seems like the worst game ever made, these perk ideas are all overpowered and stupid. If this info is legit, I am not buying the game, knifing is too complicated now, like really different types of knifes? And one that you need to swipe 4 TIMES?! REALLY!

Djsparx

no not overpowered, everything has a counter, and its making it more like an actual game where you have to use skill rather than drop, 360 throw throwing knife at your foot jump up kill someone with a flying kick to the arse.

look at BF3 knives take 2 from the front, 1 from the back.

use your eyes look at whats been said and its very very balanced, but fucktards like you wont see that.

Spurdo

noepnope. bf3 people take 6 knifes to the front, 1 to the side and 1 to the back

Tlg233

Well if you’ve played bf3, the most recent patch upped damage on knives. 2 swipes to kill, and of course one for knife takedowns.

Nicholas the Retard

knifing ruined cod anyway, the fact that you liked the old knifing system over a non one shot kill knifing systems shows how bad you truly are.

Kichi671

Let me know when you find a tactical knife that when stabbed in ankle(like most kills in the other COD games) and you die instantly…

Mick Ditten

Knifing was OP as shit. 4 times is balanced out by the speed at which you knife. Normally it’s 2 hit kill. It’s an first person *shooter* anyway, not a first person knifer. Go and try and knife in CS

Fake. If I’m correct, one perk will give the ability to let your gunship last for ever if the enemy doesn’t shoot it down.

Pretty much, your gonna rack up a lot of kills if no one on the other team takes the time to shoot it down..

Aaperture

Only the controllable killstreaks will last until shot down, which are likely to be the weakest ones.

Down with panic knifing! Let’s see how ONLYUSEmeBLADE deals with this COD

y u hatin on only only only

Mick Ditten

Ah, he just does some annoying things sometimes. But I wasn’t hating, just stating,

Jon

He’ll probably use the bladesman perk so he still kills in one kill, duh.

Mick Ditten

Except he stopped using Commando because it was so easy

Jmal05

he doesn’t panic knife, he only knifes just for fun.

Mick Ditten

How is knifing fun? Good one

http://twitter.com/Omega8Trigun Chris Stacy

Obviously he’d just use bladesman and ballistic knives and still one hit knife ppl lol.

Mick Ditten

Ballistic knives only one hit kill at range

Spray and Pray

I hope that only applies to knifing from the front. Backstabs should kill in 1 stab.

Mick Ditten

Yeah, but have you seen the backstabber challenge in MW3. The game is basically incapable of determining what is the back and what is the front.

This list is fake, so much bullshit in it.

This honestly sounds like it would make for a good game, as knife kills wouldn’t be instant, as well as some interesting perks. Of course, it most likely isn’t true, because they want to pump out as much shit as they can, because they want to cater to the same audience. Try something new, and maybe some other gamers will enjoy the game. Maybe get rid of the younger audience all together and make the game more challenging, or try to add some more strategical gameplay. I think the best thing would be to MAKE A NEW DAMN ENGINE, we’re sick of the same thing over and over, and it’s getting annoying. Anyone who doesn’t really like the idea of a different CoD game is being a baby and wants everything to be easy.

Too complicated, why not just make Black Ops 2 the same as Black Ops without the mistakes?

Eg0t15t1c4l

Well……MW3 tried that and that turned out terrible because they pretty much unbalanced everything. (Even though they tried to re-balance it with the nerfs and buffs)

Seems balanced, not because it nerfs everything but everything has a counter. if you want a noob stealth perk then kiss goodbye to a few really useful combat perks and although the slots aren’t confirmed im sure that’s what its hinting (if its real). And why moan about knives they’re obviously op at the moment why should someone have the option to insta kill someone by pressing one button in a panic. Its saddening to see people moan about innovative suggestions made in this yet hate mw3 because it is unoriginal, the cod community are idiots that don’t like cod anymore but won’t admit it even though nothing would please them…

9. Bladesman – You have 2 knives in each hand instead of just one in one hand. (This essentially makes knives kill twice as fast.)

b. Pro – You have a chance of dodging the incoming players knife.

c. Elite – If assasin is active – kniving will be completely silent and
not show on the killfeed, unless countered by audiophile elite.

Excuse me when I say that this proves this entire thing to be bullshit. Why? Take a closer look at the elite version.

That’s right. /Assassin./ Where was the mention of that perk, what does it do? Is it the same as previous entries? Where’s the Sleight of Hand?

There’s as many holes in this post as there are in swiss cheese.

Pel

While I agree with you that this has to be fake, it does make mention at the top of the list of perks that this list only includes *new* perks, and won’t list any returning perks.

riot shields? seriously? Gotta be fake.

Ryan Luz

It doesn’t smell right. To me the dead giveaway is the list of weapons. Look at the assault rifles. They’re essentially either lightly used AK variants or semi auto rifles. The Commando and AR 18 are the exceptions. That just doesn’t seem right to me.

Just bring back the game mode WAR from Call Of Duty: World At War and I’ll be the happiest little kid in the world

Id rather they just took out knifing and go back to the old cod where you just hit them with the butt of your gun. knifing is so unrealistic.first off,it would take 2 hits!!!!!!!!!! secondly, you wouldn’t be able to take out your knife and stab them in nearly the amount of time as whats in cod.

Ebone

Soooooo Fake. There is no way they would add 12 new perks and that many weapons. Many of the ideas are just stolen from BF3, MW3 or made up by a child. If this was an IW game I would actually believe this, but Treyarch is better than this crap.

non of this crap better be in bo2. bo1 was my favorite game and this crap doesnt seem like cod. this seems like a 3rd rate shooter game, not a 1st rate like cod.

legit

Legit! mp1st.com leaked Mw3 info last year around this time and it was 95% Real

http://mp1st.com/ Fahed Jaradat

That leak was an exclusive one, meaning we, MP1st, were the source of the MW3 info (guns, attachments, and such). This one is us reporting on a leak. Thanks for the vote of confidence, but this is not our leak, we’re just keeping you informed of what’s out there.

http://twitter.com/KiddVegasSix Gëørgë Grëën™

MW3 then i go

Ascension King

Some of these perks sound overpowered and if this is true I better see custom Red Dots like in BO I had a Blue Skull.
Secondly MPL is back? Yay! But lack of Stoner63 is troubling.
Better see zombies and custom emblems.

RabidTurtle

I’m thinking this info is gonna turn out to be fake.

The weapon list, at least for the assault rifles has a lot of clones. AK74, Valmet M76 and M60 (I think it meant M62…couldn’t find a Valmet m60), M70, AKM-63, and AMD-65. Every one of those weapons is effectively the AK-47 made from different countries, with the only exceptions being the Valmets use NATO 5.56 and the AK74 uses 5.45. Of the few remaining assault rifles, the AR-18 and Type 65 are the same thing (Type 65 is a Taiwanese built AR-18), the commando is really the CAR-15, couldn’t figure out what the R1 rifle is, and the M-14 Mini is not a military rifle. The guns seem to point towards the game being set in the late 70s to early 80s; yet for some reason, they aren’t gonna bring back the Streyer AUG? That gun was already anachronistic in BO, at least put it in a game set in the late 70s to early 80s.

The perks sound…counter productive. Black Ops made it a point that killstreaks wouldn’t build on each other; it seems strange that they would add perks to allow them to stack. Pilot pro also sounds terrible; you are rarely ever gonna see gunships leave now. Counter that with the rather shitty ability of Defuser (that by the way does no kind of defusing…that is odd), the perks revealed are not balanced. At all.

The new game modes also sound like they will be a mess. Escort – most gamers hate playing those kind of missions anyways in single player games, but to have a complete round be based on the fact that you have to keep a player alive (no mention of that player having extra health or being able to be revived, or even how that player is selected) is just going to be a mess. Yes Killzone 3 had something similar in Warzone, but the difference is that the target didn’t have to go to a specific location on the map, and the target dying did not lose the match; just one of seven rounds within a single match. Equalizer will be annoying; why care how well you do, because you could end up on the losing team within seconds of the game ending. Splt Spawn sounds interesting, but not likely to work out that well on the Call of Duty engine, plus the fact that shooting down the helicopter means everyone is out. If instead the helicopter was just added as a mobile spawn while still allowing players to spawn around the map (a la BF3), that would be interesting. As it stands, it sounds like everyone is gonna grab Stingers and just try to take out the enemy chopper.

Based upon the info listed, I really am doubting much of it to be real. I could be wrong, but if I am wrong, then Treyarch understands something most people don’t, or Call of Duty is going to keep sinking (MW3 did sell less than BO in the same amount of time). Really shows that a series shouldn’t be pushed out every year; you either are gonna get static “every game is the same” development *cough*, or in an attempt to avoid your series being stale, you will introduce wild variations that are different for the sake of being different, and not necessary for true innovation or fun.

That’s is just scary. A whole page comment.

It’s near impossible to judge the the game based on this. You’d need to see it in action. Though as someone stated, everything has a counter. Also, if the air killstreak stays up until it’s shot down due to a perk…….shoot it the fuck down.

blondbassist

I find this info very hard to beleive, the Pic doesn’t look that well done and anyone can write some text about game info, the fact that the “leaked info” contained details of things that were confirmed by treyarch themselves to be not making it into the next Treyarch CoD kind of sealed the coffin on this one.

RigbyPA

Amazing…. this sounds like it could be the worst COD game yet.

And the last 2 by Infinity Ward were God awful!

Never buying a COD game again.

This franchise has gone the way of the Tony Hawk franchise…..

JUMPED THE SHARK!!!

Adam_jstone

” never buying a COD game again.” Yeah, right. I bet you said the same thing before MW3, Black Ops, MW2, and World At War.

NIGGAS

FAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

RigbyPA

Also: Yea like I really want to play a FPS where players can feign death….

What a JOKE!

Mick Ditten

No worse than Last Stand. Or Dead Man’s Hand. *shudder*

Anonymous

Actually that feature is almost as old as Online FPS, introduced in Unreal Tournament (1999). Of course there was Gibbing back then so a perfectly intact body with no blood was almost never perceived as real.

Fried Fries

Also it will only work in hardcore. When no points appear he’s not dead.

Torchstang

lol at this pos , no way am I going to buy this noob trash.

aline albuquerque

I don’t believe this is totally true because some of these things don’t match with the age of the game(1960) and with what david vonderhaar was discussing on twitter. Just my opnion… Some of these things are good but some others.. i don’t know, we’ll see if this works when we play it.

fake and gay, jus wait 10 days guys

lProtozoa

If these perks are really in Black Ops 2 this game is ruined.

Mason McKay

black ops 2 is still going to have alex mason, so why would there be modern shit? wtf

AReader789

Mason might be in a flashbock, hopefully. The game looks like it takes place from the late 70′s to late 80′s.

http://www.facebook.com/lilrizky Joshua Rizk

yeah, don’t forget there’s still areas in the cold war that haven’t been covered yet.

There is stuff that goes against what David from Treyarch has already confirmed, and some of the items in there go against community wishes, and against the mood of threads where David had solicited comments on stuff, most notably the knifing system.

Bladesman – I mean come on – not showing in the kill feed? Of what benefit is that anyway?

And seriously, if the chopper gunner returns, it will stay until shot down if using Pilot?

You’re just asking people to use Ghost/Blind Eye with that kind of shit in the game.
If this is real then nice to see an increase in guns, hopefully will mean more variety used.

I actually like these perk, gun, attachment, and knifing ideas. Escort seems just fine, but the other two seem a little complicated (Not to me, but I know that they’ll give some other people problems and I can see a lot of games being ruined due to dumbasses). All the perks have either a counter perk or a negative side to the perk that balances them out. Initially, I thought Pilot Pro was OP, but then I realized all it required was a liitle initiative from the players themselves. FINALLY, they have solved the panic knifing problem! Thank God! And they gave us options for melee Overall, I like what I see and the perks, from what I can tell, are designed to promote skill and actual effort on the players’ parts. I hope this turns out to be true.

One thing I’m confused about though, do you have to choose between Pro or Elite without the option of getting both? Or do you get Pro first and can get Elite later? I believe it’s the former, but an answer would be appreciated nonetheless.

ps3fuckedintheass

Or maybe be an Elite subscriber to have it

As for knifing. Yes, it works for panic knifing – but what about back stabbing? You shouldn’t have to have two swipe to knife from behind.

I agree something needs to be done to stop people ‘running through bullets’ which happened a lot in BO1, but two swipes when I’ve found someone fixated with looking out a window isn’t good.

I’d prefer the knife to be slow to get out, so that I can still one-hit people from behind that aren’t paying attention, but if someone tries to knife me from the front when I’m shooting them, I get a little bit more time to get an extra (fatal) bullet in them.

KillrateOmega

True, but then nothing’s perfect right? At least this is progress in the right direction toward solving some long-held problems

DCowboys437

The poster is real, but the multiplayer details are obviously fake, Call of Duty is a simple game press R1 to shoot, R2 to throw grenades and equipment, X to jump the weapon names sound like completely fake trash and the 4 hits for knife its like WTF? The Perk system makes no sense anyways like have this perk here and have another perk here equals this plus this. Black Ops 2 should be the original Black Ops with balanced weapons no ghost, final stand, second chance, and dead mans hand.

Alex

There are SEVERAL redundancies in this information. There are 3 AK assault variants from 3 different countries (in BO1 it was really only the AK47 or Galil) and 2 AK variant “SMGs”. There is also a Mini-Uzi AND an Uzi (sounds pointless). 2 Ithaca shotguns of the same variant (Stakeout/Featherlight). 2 SVD variants (SVD of course and M76 sniper). Also why would there be a Skorpion in the pistol spot? There are 3 or 4 fire and forget launchers (pointless) and 2 frag grenade types. Not to mention the ambiguous names for guns (several Model *insert number* weapons, 3 M76s, and a couple different Type *insert number*). All these things lead me to believe this info is not true, so those who are complaining at Treyarch, don’t (at least not yet).

if this is real im buying jk I dislike cod but ill buy black ops 2 no matter what I like black ops ill buy just to have

yami

Hope this is tue, sounds like the best Call of Duty game ever in this direction. This sounds like an early list though, im sire things would be tweaked and removed when closer to the final build, but now it seems they took out all cheap tatics used in all Call of Duty games like jumping and shooting, and akimbo was not mentioned, no more quickscoping (or made a lot harder), drop shot is out, no more kniferunners, basically everything that seemed wrong and messed up in earlier call of duties are out, and it sounds balanced for the most part give or take 2 or 3 things which again its probably an early list. From this leak and MP1st previous Black Ops 2 Multiplayer leak, its everything i was hoping for, and i knew Treyarch can do it, now all im hoping for is new a new engine (or at least moderately better graphics, new animations, effects etc.) and dedicated servers. It all sounds great written up, but we’ll see how good it is when its shown and played.

yeah idk some of these perks look underpowered. i liked black ops so ill get it and ill get halo 4 too

Bpackkid

The idea of dodging a knife is a good one. & those swipes will make the game more interesting. I can’t wait to get the game.

http://twitter.com/p0w3rfu13n3my Chris Coulombe

Who cares? Cod sucks. All we got from Mw3 was a broken game covered in lies. We were promised dedicated servers, that didn’t happen. We were promised no more dead man’s hand and final stand well we were lied to there as well. All the CODs 3arc and IW games are lagging pieces of steamy activision shit. Hit detection is broken, lag compensation has been a joke, their game doesn’t work for MLG and online multi-player isn’t even fun to play because it is so unfair. Sometimes I am almost a full second behind and I have the best internet I can get. Cod is broken, Boycott Call of Duty.

Everyone is so worried about knives taking 4 hits and what not. Man the fuck up and play hardcore, people who play core are bad at the game. Man up stop being gay

Brentenbarberis

i completely disagree. in core you have to aim and make sure your bullets hit. in HC you can shoot aimlessly and get lucky with 1 bullet in the leg. in core there are killcams, enabling the player to see where campers are. in HC there are nooooooo killcams which creates A LOT of camping. also theres no point in a silencer in HC. its just not a good.

Guest

dude in black ops 2 in HC 1 bullet to the arms or legs wont count as a kill they will take damage but they wont die

Ricky

This sounds awesome!!! Can’t wait!!!!

seb559

I hope they add much more guns ( specifically guns) and add quick scoping

JBocks

Oh god no
people are saying that its broken already, we really don’t need snipers that are made to be used at long and short range back

idk why people complain about COD if they say it sucks then why does everyone play it…

Guest

wtf is this?

Audiophile - pretty much makes the silencer pointless

Knifing is crazy shit complicated now.

This list seems fake.

LoNeZiLLa

Ummmmmm I think MLG will have to ban almost EVERYTHING in this game if this info is correct…

Omriwolf0

The perks here are so fucked up…. And i didn’t liked the knife system.. not going to buy if this is true.

http://twitter.com/Omega8Trigun Chris Stacy

If it’s true:
1. Lol overcomplicated knifing system. FFS just use the assassination system. If it’s from behind, one hit kill, if from the front 2-3.

2. Lol pilot perk. Excuse me while I get one chopper gunner and sit in it the whole game until someone finally gets the brains to shoot it down. Makes it pretty much MANDATORY to have an anti air class. Ofc the retarded kids that play the game won’t have one.

3. Lol at turning dolphin dive into a perk AND letting you shoot while doing it.

5. A feign death perk? Really? They really have a GINORMOUS hard on for putting SOMETHING in the game that makes you think you killed someone but didn’t. It’s pretty much second chance that you can activate at any time you wish and doesn’t require you to be at low health.

6. Juggs = Juggs 2.0. Here we go again.

7. Bladesman = Commando 2.0. Here we go again.

Defuser, audiophile, and spy sound okay. But there’s so much that’s just utter nonsense. And they still keep trying to put in the bs that ppl tell them to take out in some way. Juggs, commando, and second chance are all retarded, and yet they try to put it in the game AGAIN in a slightly different way.

Boyd

Wow! Do we really need another COD this soon, already??

Guest

Wow, I’ll definitely go for Halo 4 then. I’ll see if I can pick this up from the bargain bin later.

Unperro

Fake. If you know a little about guns, you will know that, in the sniper rifle section, the PSL, the SVD, and the M76 are damn close to being the same gun. No way are there going to be three sniper rifles that are pretty much the same.

Adam_jstone

So you believe that in real life you would refuse to use a gun, just because the enemy is using a similar gun?

no

different teams different gung

craig

i wont be buying anyway,fed up of cod games.
mw is my last im afraid.
black ops 1 was such a mess,the only reason i got mw3 was friends did and i got elite pack and game for £45

Shinox

Idiots .. Go follow Activi$ion greedy steps . . .

I’m hoping this is fake. Most of the guns here are AK-style ones.

Monkeybutt

Why can’t some of the variety in game modes come out in big BF3 maps too? Meh.

http://pulse.yahoo.com/_FQ5KIKLT5FZW5PRA4YMP6WSSFY John O

I read the first line, Escort. I didnt have to read any more but i’m glad I did. I’m getting this game. I thought Black Ops sucked, so does MW, COD or whatever you call it, but Escort is FUN.

Anton

where is the m1911? that was a big part in old black ops.. or this is gonna be very new game xD

Iansaucey

blackops is much better than mwf 2&3

Kurtis619

some of this is Oviously fake they would be retarted to put this in the game

they obviously made black ops 2 more for players who play using tactical advantages and play smarter. Not so much for the pieces of shit who charge full speed into raining gunfire spraying their op automatic weapons praying for easy kills. Thank you Treyarch you answered my prayers. as a sniper this should be a very enjoyable game. Unlike Modern Shitfaced 3.

Majumdersayak

Many Chinese weapons are present in the list … could it be that black ops 2′s part of the campaign takes place in China

This is looks fake, the article already says the picture is fake and the juggernaut perk is either wrong or fake based on what treyarch said about regenerative perks. So its most likely all is fan made. Treyarch usually adds more innovative things to their game compared to infinity ward but thats too much. I heard it might have 2 pro perks that can be unlocked based on how you play but these effects are overly complicated. The perks he posted are only the new ones so most of the old ones will be there. Thats way too many perks to put in 3 tiers so they will need 4 and blackops was more about balance that any other recent CoD and that would make the game even more unbalanced. I don’t know about the knife slot, it sounds like something they could do and it would be fun but those effects will make it a waste of time. Knifes should stay one hit kill. 4 hits to kill wtf, there are guns that kill in 3 hits and they shoot faster. People complaining about panic knifing either suck or take it too seriously. I get panic knifed but that barely happens. I prefer to get panic knifed that make knifing unusable. Plus Cod5 and Blackops had shit knifes so imagine having to hit multiple times with those knifes! Mw2 knife lunge was too much, Cod5 and Blackops knife was too inaccurate. Unless you were close enough to be humping the guy the knife wouldn’t hit. There should be some lunge, its supposed to be a last ditch effort to get the kill, but just not too much lunge. MW3 knife lunge isn’t bad. I don’t know about the guns, i am guessing Blackops 2 will be after Black ops but before modern warfare so someone could check if the guns are correct for the time.

Schribdeer

Reading all of this it dosnt sound like its really call of duty butt I like the perks and the fact that people will not be able to panik knife u any more LOL.

Ppl might get upset cuz maybe they feel it will b unfair…BUT everyone its given a chance, its what u do with it and how smart u r..think about it! U don’t just have perks anymore, u r creating and choosing skills to build apon..there r so many great games that do co op campaign that have each different character w diff skills, only now u can build apon it..it won’t b about presriguing its going to b allllll about how elite u can make ur multilayer character…totally baddd asssss

Jcraff3

No dude..its letting u coordinate skills to build an assassin essentially..only instead of being mw3 and making him over the top well rounded, its like a FBI agent specialized in something….evey single person well have strengths and weaknesses and they will both interact w each other against everyone else, instead of being over dominate…gunna b so nice

Hmm…the Arwen (Anti-Riot Weapon ENfield) -37 is a non-lethal projectile launcher. Are they going to have it rigged as a lethal weapon, and/or have it coupled with the riot shield?

daniel

I HATE the new Knife melee slot, sounds stupid i mean 4 for a Kill?! WTF is that about?!

XKizaruX

This seems ridiculously fake. Most of the Snipers are the same gun. Having a chance to dodge someone’s knife just sounds like a bad idea. No one with skill wants a fight to have a chance of being a coin toss. Indefinite Killstreaks also another horrible idea. Imagine a month veteran playing against a lobby of Nubs, he would kill until the limit was reached. Feign death just sounds like a hax version of the YY move. In all, I hope this is just some 13 boys fucked up ideas put into blog form.

Devontemendez27

it can be true u liar thats not true none of it

Optic NaDeSh0t

fake

poor ignorants

this is bullshit , these are INFINITY WARD PERKS Fuck This Fake Shit

Getgwap247

if it takes more than 1 knife melee to kill some1 its gnna be wack…been playing call of duty on xbox since duty 2 nicests in any1 of them except duty3….but cod2, cod4, world at war, mw2, blackops,and now MW3…im the nicest….but evrey1 of them 1 melee attack u DIE..never gonna change that it would be stupid….those game modes seem pretty lame as well…hardcore is suppose to be reamped i heard as well with no noobtubes and other things…hardcore is fun thats what i usually play but i think they need to bring it back to call of duty 2 days when there was only team death match / free for all / headquarters / search and destroy / i think there was a couple others but there was no hardcore/core u couldnt decide if there was radar or not or what damage you take…less game modes = more competition =better leaderboards (well easier to track). but hope this is not the case cuz it will be wack

TaDa Feedz

mw3 and black ops are two different games, mw2 is like mw3 but with different perks it takes only a few bullets to kill someone which is complete bull!@# while in black ops it takes a good amount of bullets to kill someone.

Hottiewithabody

This completely 100% FAKE. Whoever remotely believes that this could be accurate and legitimate info should be shot in the face.

Gg

it will be set in the future
most of the guns are really old by then

Matt

Moan moan moan, complain complain complain. “Average COD player” gets more stupid by the day. Everyone complains that they repackage the same game every time. A list comes out showing a fair amount of changes to gameplay and everyone complains. Why am I even surprised. I hate COD players. Biggest dicks in the world. I’ve actually stopped telling people I play COD as they’ll think I’m some whiny little retard kid with half a brain cell and a ritalin dependency. You know full well that you’ll all be there to buy the special edition at midnight on release day, even though you’ve said you’ll “NEVER PLAY COD AGAIN, WAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH”! LOLOLOLOL

Most of these guns look like each other. The rifles for instance look like variants of the SVD and AK…

guest

lol like they would have that many ak variants in 1 game hahahaha pathetic attempt at a fake weapons list, perks may be real though

http://www.facebook.com/squizzlemonkey Sam Hurrell

That seems way too complicated to me, please be fake.
The gun selection looks fake to me aswell.
Spy might be legit but a lot of these seem too complicated to all be implimented into the game all at once.

the reason we all think this will be a bad game is because we think it will have the MW3 system with all BS perks from treyarch. treyarch thinks everything through so there is counters to about everything.

some perks sound gay keep it simple but new and they like nerfed my knifin what the fuck 4 to kill thats bullshit keep it cod style and have us something to throw like the tomahawk but something different or have the throwing knife tomahawks or something from the future like a homing knife

Michaelsantam

They should have akimbo perk or add on that you buy on wall for zombies that would be neet

Frostz

If this is the real info about the game ill kept playing mw3 f.u black ops 2

ANGRY NEGRO

THIS IS FUCKING GAY. I HOPE THIS SHIT IS FAKE. THIS SHIT JUST COMPLICATES EVERYTHING IN THIS FUCKING GAME. “SPY” CAN LICK MY ASSHOLE. BITCH NAGGAZ EVERY WEA I GO 4 LYF

Kill yourself, please just kill yourself. D:

UniqueCalzone

Pah. If this is acuratte, then my God… Treyarch makes me cry. Was expecting an XM8.

savagerival

what happened to the old black ops. you know the one least futurist non robot dogs as kill streaks this new black ops going to be a fail

z

the split spawn should be fun but some of the perks are kinda stupid like knives show up on the radar? wtf but im still buying BO2

z

im tired of all these ass comments saying “the graphics suck” or “im not gonna buy it its gonna suck” you should try it out and even if you dont like it you can always just sell it at gamestop or ebay

im right

to chad eugen rash towards top….you sir are stupid

chocotacoturtle

You guys who say ” after mw3 I am giving up on cod” are stupid. This is Treyarch not the new iw give the game a chance and try no to be biased

You forgot the suprresor attatchment….. and Sleight of Hand? it’s in every game.

CoD fan

I hope the melee info is fake -_-”

Berzerked

I really don’t think these perks are legit, they just seem so stupid. Wtf is the point of a silencer if you appear on the map? Why would you want to see somebody stabbing on the map? Its just so far-fetched, like a retarded 15 year old mad this shit up.

http://www.facebook.com/people/Devan-Long/100001445090688 Devan Long

fake no release info yet and if you watch trailers you would know that these are fake because they are missing guns

http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=691381232 Sam Grugel

I really hope this info isn’t real. Multiple knifes to kill?!?! That’s pretty dumb although i guess it could be realistic in a way. But yes IW had it down till mw3. I liked mw2 a lot. As dumb as this game could be, I’ll still find myself buying it. lol XD

kippflip710

I just want to say that they have more pre orders for black ops 2 then any other cod game

Kyle Alberry

This has gotta be fake, there is no way trearch will be making perks that shitty.

Chaospikmin

I am really not liking what treyarch is putting into Black Ops 2. So far I personally dislike the perks seeing that they are OP in their own way adding less enjoyment to those who simply want to play without using those perks. Adding a knife slot is also very disappointing, now knowing that people have other types of melee weapons make it quite annoying to have to worry which you should use rather than your basic knife. Plus the fact of having improved iron sights? Why have iron sights when you can simply slap on a red dot sight and be on your way, its meaningless if your view is much greater if you have a red dot sight and not have to worry about anything else.

However, instead of being a critic, I do appreciate what they are doing with the knifing mechanics. Having it so no one runs around stabbing everyone and/or panic knifing makes it much better for those who have an LMG and are not able to be as agile compared to someone with an SMG equipped. I know that they are atleast putting SOME effort into this game by fixing some problems that IW left behind but it seems like they might cover it up. Yet I still have my doubts on those perks and the new knife slot, but I suppose we will see how it works out then, yes?

http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100000706550449 Arvind Chahal

This looks like a large lot of items. Seems cool. But i hope that not the whole list of weapons.

MrDany97

and what will happen with the x-ray sight??

mike

I buy black ops 2 because black ops 1 a good game is and i expect acceptble slots and a stable gun power not overpowered

blivion

a bit fucked up for knifing if they can get close enough to knife you its your fault they shouldnt be punished for it by making almost everything melle related 4 shot kill but all around it looks like an amazing game

BaTTLEDrOiD 916

black ops 2 is going to be such a great game, cant wait!

cod lover

black ops 2 is going to be the best game ever so for all u haters go FUCK URSELF

anookee

all i know is that i will only being using melee and melee perks in this!
